1st Logo
(19??-1960's)
Logo: On a morning background with black sun and rays imposing it, we see the text "SAMPAGUITA" on an ascending-descending weird but mostly understandable font, on the circle of the sun with a pedestal. Over its borders, we see a filming camera and three/four sampaguita flowers (if you see closely, there is a house over the flowers) Over the pedestal of "SAMPAGUITA", we see some outlining of carnival outfit or some fruits. There's a filmstrip ribbon on the bottom of the pedestal. In the middle of it is the text "PICTURES, INC." On the downwards side of the screen, we see the text "Presents" in a weird cursive font. The rays keep moving and then we cut to black.
FX/SFX: The rays moving.
Music/Sounds: An 16-note happy orchestral fanfare.
Availability: Rare. Appears on earlier films by the company.
Editor's Note: None.
Music/Sounds: A majestic, yet at the same time bombastic fanfare.
Availability: Rare. Was spotted on films including Siklab sa Batangas and Matandang Dalaga. This was used in tandem with the first logo during its early lifespan.
Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo
(1960's-1990)
Logo: On a platinum morning background with some golden rays moving, we see the text "SAMPAGUITA" on a less-giant ascending-descending font. Over it's borders we see the same filming camera and over the right we see the same house but with an arc over the house. A very modeled ribbon, which says "PICTURES, INC." appears over the text. Some circled rings appear from both borders of the text "SAMPAGUITA", and the grass is now white.
Variant: Earlier films used a B&W version of the logo before the introduction of color film in the Philippines.
FX/SFX: Same as before, but the logo appears as a model and the rays move slower.
Music/Sounds: A majestic, yet at the same time bombastic fanfare.
Availability: Rare. Was spotted on films including Siklab sa Batangas and Matandang Dalaga. This was used in tandem with the first logo during its early lifespan.
